- Summary:
- This timely collection offers a fresh look on the impact of gender perspectives in the discipline of political science at the beginning of the 21st century. Jane Bayes combats the Eurocentric focus that has characterised both fields and suggests viable alternatives for the future of the disciplines.
- Anhand der Forschungen zu Sicherheitsfragen sowie zur politischen Ökonomie zeigt [Bayes], dass die feministische Forschung wichtige Beiträge geleistet hat, um klassische Perspektiven auf kriegerische Konflikte und den homo oeconomicus durch die Geschlechterperspektive zu erweitern und die Forschung dafür zu sensibilisieren. Der Sammelband bietet daher einen erfrischend anderen Einblick in die politikwissenschaftliche Geschlechterforschung. Pw-portal.de, 27.11.2014
